But Zhang Xiu chuckled and said, "my father-in-law is joking. I said that I always treat people with sincerity. I'm a sincere person. How can I bewitch people. That's what I've done along the way. "

"You see, under my rule, there is no internal friction."

"When I was in charge of Nanyang County, the whole Nanyang County was not under my rule. My jurisdiction, only Yuyang county to the north of the region. At that time, the Deng family in Xinye was a strong family in Nanyang County. If the whole Deng family made efforts, the place under my rule would be in turmoil. "

"But the Deng family in Xinye acted recklessly. I not only destroyed the people of the Deng family in Yuyang County, but also led the soldiers to Xinye, went to the door to ask a question, and destroyed the whole Deng family."

Zhang Xiu said: "after I was in charge of Nanyang County, I killed countless people step by step, but no common people said how Zhang Xiu was. They all praised me. The reason is simple, I let them eat and warm up. "

"But under my father-in-law?"

"You are constantly fighting against all sides. You have also saved the people from war. You have not suffered any more. You have also fed and clothed the people. But what have you got?"

"The people have never appreciated you."

"People call you cao thief."

Zhang Xiu said: "what you get is the reputation of Cao thief, the reputation of traitor."

Cao Cao's face is constantly changing.

Zhang Xiu's words, like a steel needle, poked directly into Cao Cao's heart.

Cao Cao knew it was true.

However, Cao Cao had his own decision and said with a smile, "in this world, if you get something, you will pay something. What's more, it's my choice. There's nothing to complain about. "

Zhang Xiu's heart is also filled with emotion. Cao Cao's heart is as iron as stone.

It's hard to bewitch!

Liu Biao and others have long been moved, but Cao Cao can't bewitch him.

Zhang Xiu continued: "I didn't say how my father-in-law complained. What I said was that my father-in-law killed Qingliu in the court and killed the officials who opposed you in the court. Then, you will have the sole power and no voice against you any more."

Cao Cao laughed and did not speak.

Zhang Xiu once again said: "you are good to the people, let the people live a good life, and no one outside splashes your dirty water, then the reputation of your father-in-law will gradually improve. Alas, I have broken my heart for my father-in-law. I hope he can have a good reputation and live in peace. "

"Come on!"

Cao Cao said with a curl of his mouth: "you boy, you are all for my good. In my heart, I'm afraid I wish I had an accident. I wish I had made the imperial court a mess. "

Zhang Xiu said, "it's hard to be a good man."

"Come, come, drink!"

Zhang Xiu took the wine bottle, respected Cao Cao again, and then drank it all in one gulp. Zhang Xiu drank today's wine, not a bit drunk, because this wine is lower than later generations of beer, not much taste.

Zhang Xiu knows the craft of wine making, but now the most scarce thing in the world is food. To make a really good wine, a lot of food has to be consumed, so Zhang Xiu has no idea of making wine for the time being.

Food is not enough, how can we make wine wantonly.

This is Zhang Xiu's idea.

But this kind of wine, for Zhang Xiu, is not drunk, you can drink at will.

Zhang Xiu and Cao Cao, you drink and I drink. Zhang Xiu is not drunk, but Cao Cao is different. In particular, Cao Cao is already in his early 40s. He is old and has a lot less alcohol.

Before long, Cao Cao was a little drunk.

Cao Cao's eyes fell on Zhang Xiu. He leaned his elbow against the table in front of him, and rubbed his chin beard with his hand. He said with emotion, "son-in-law, you have such a vast experience and more courage."

"Would you like to be an official in the court?"

"I promise that as long as you are willing to become an official in the court, I will order you to take the post of Taiwei according to the previous agreement. You and my son-in-law work together to clean up the turbid, clean up the universe, and help the world. It's the easiest thing to do. "

In the words, five more points of intoxication.

After hearing this, Zhang Xiu sneers in her heart. Cao Cao pretends to be drunk. He was said to be an official in the imperial court, and he was said to be a Taiwei. But once Zhang Xiu entered the imperial court, he would hate for Cao Cao, and he would have a pot on his back.

Zhang Xiu is not stupid.

What's more, in today's world of the Han Dynasty, Zhang Xiu knows that she is safe outside. The most stable thing is to be a local emperor and to rise steadily.

Entering the imperial court is a suicide.

In fact, although Cao Cao threatened the emperor to order the princes, even if he was loyal to Cao Cao's family, there were many people who were loyal to the Han Dynasty. In a short period of time, Cao Cao's internal stability, in fact, also has considerable risks.

However, Cao Cao has been ignoring this matter.

Zhang Xiu sighed: "my father-in-law asked me to be an official in the court, but one mountain can't tolerate two tigers. How can my father-in-law deal with himself when I become an official? The officials under his father-in-law could not be convinced. Just, just, I'd better be in Chang'an. "

"Pity, pity!"

There was a light in Cao Cao's eyes.

He did pretend to be drunk.This is to test Zhang Xiu. Unexpectedly, Zhang Xiu doesn't want to be an official at all.

Cao Cao said, "my son-in-law, do you think this great man can be saved in the world?"

"Yes!"

Zhang Xiu said, "if you have your father-in-law, you will be saved. This is not the case. Last year, Yue Zhang just defeated Yuan Shu and wiped out Chen Guo. There is no one in the world who dares to be an emperor. "

Cao Cao said: "but there are other people, virtuous son-in-law. Don't you want to be king and Emperor?"

At this time, Cao Cao was still drunk.

He was still testing.

Take the opportunity to drink, take the opportunity to dress drunk, try Zhang Xiu's heart.

Zhang Xiu said: "the world of the Great Han is the land of the Liu family. Once you become an emperor or a king, the world will fight for it. I have nothing else to ask for. I just want to have a place to live in troubled times, to protect the people and to make them live and work in peace and contentment. My father-in-law and I are a family. My father-in-law supports the Hanshi, and I should be with him. "

"Good, good, good boy."

Cao Cao praises Zhang Xiu in his mouth and scolds Zhang Xiu in his heart. He is full of lies and can't find a word of truth.

Zhang xiudao said, "my father-in-law is in praise of me."

Cao Cao tried again and again, but he still couldn't find out the depth of Zhang Xiu, so he stopped talking. After drinking two more glasses of wine, he fell on the table.

Seeing this, Zhang Xiu walked out of the camp and left with Wang Yue and others.

After Zhang Xiu left, Cao Cao woke up and ordered people to take the drinks, while Xia Houdun, Cao Hong and others entered the camp immediately after.

Xia Houdun looked solemn and said: "Sikong, Zhang Xiu is too dangerous. Do you really want to connive him to sit up and let him return to Chang'an? "

Cao Cao asked, "are you going to kill him?"

"If you don't kill him, that's a big threat," said XiahouDun

Cao Cao snorted: "kill him, where is my official's reputation? If you kill him, there will be enough reason for the emperor to criticize me. If you kill him, Chen Bing's tens of thousands of Zhang Xiu troops at the border will enter Yanzhou. Can you afford the consequences? "

Xia Houdun didn't say anything, just thought of being defeated by Zhang Xiu, thought of the whole army being beaten by Zhang Xiu, Xia Houdun's heart was helpless.

Cao Cao continued: "instead of thinking about how to kill Zhang Xiu, it's better to think about how to train soldiers and improve their combat effectiveness. This is the most important thing. My official and Zhang Xiu are not only the masters of each side, but also the son-in-law of Weng. "

XiahouDun's face changed slightly.

He almost forgot that Cao Jie married Zhang Xiu.

Zhang Xiu is Cao Cao's son-in-law.

XiahouDun said no more, turned and stepped down. Cao Hong was silent from beginning to end and left with him.

Cao Cao was sitting alone in the camp, but his eyes were thoughtful, and he murmured: "Zhang Xiu, Zhang Xiu, you really make me difficult. If I don't kill you, I'll let the tiger go. To kill you is to burn yourself. "

In fact, Cao Cao is also entangled.

But Cao Cao's heart, after all, is not to kill Zhang Xiu's mind, occupy the upper hand, just did not fight against Zhang Xiu.
